Folksonomy-Based Information Retrieval by Generating Tag Cloud for Electronic Resources Management Industries and Suggestive Mechanism for Tagging Using Data Mining Techniques

Abstract

In the current scenario the amount of electronic resources are increasing rapidly. These resources are human readable and understandable. The industries which are managing these resources have various problems for their retrieval. In this chapter, the authors tried to propose folksonomy based information retrieval by generating tag cloud. This model not only helps the industries to manage their electronic resources for retrieval but helps them by providing suggestions for tagging with the usage of similarity metrics. This suggestive mechanism also helps users to understand resources at specific and organizations at general. The authors also have implemented the model to demonstrate the experimental results followed by discussion.
